Assessment and Grades

Students are given a letter grade for each course at the end of the semester they are registered.

Any student who receives AA, BA, BB, CB, CC, S, and EX  degree from a course is accepted as successful of the relevant course (see: Niğde Ömer Halisdemir  University Undergraduate Study, Education and Examination Regulations)

• CODES
  
• a) S: Successful in the non-credit courses,
  
  b) U: Unsuccessful in the non-credit courses,
  
  c) P: Successful in the annual courses at the end of the first semester,
  
  d) EX: Successful in the exemption exam fulfilled by the university,
  
  e) NI: Course grades apart from weighted average, 
• f) NA: Unsuccessful because the students have failed to regularly attend courses or have not fulfilled the requirements of the course practices in order to take the general exam,
  
  g) T: Transfer course grade. 
• The students who get one of the following grades AA, BA, BB, CB, CC, S and EX are considered to be successful. The ones who have obtained the grade DC or DD from one or several courses are considered as successful on condition that they complete the courses in the semester for which they registered with the academic average of 2,00 and above. "T" stands for the received course grade of the transferred students from other departments and universities and its equivalence is adopted by the Faculty/School Board on the recommendation of Department Chair. It is not included in GPA calculations. 

  Any student who provides a cumulative GPA of at least 2,00 is approved as graduate (see: Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University Undergraduate Study, Education and Examination Regulations)

  • Academic Avarage
    
  • Success of a student is determined by calculating Semester Point Average and Grade Point Average. Weighted grade point is calculated by multiplying the course credit with the coefficient.
    
  • Semester point average is calculated by dividing the total amount of weighted grade points of courses that should be taken in the semester by the total amount of credit hours attempted. Annual courses are included in the spring term point average.
    
    General point average is calculated by dividing the total amount of weighted grade points of courses that should be taken throughout the whole university education by the total amount of credit hours attempted.
    
    When calculating academic average, two digits after the decimal point are taken. The number in the second digit is enhanced one on condition that the number in the third digit after decimal point is five and above.
    
    Minor and double major courses and S and T grade courses even if stated in academic plan are not considered in calculating academic average. The last taken grade is included in academic average in repeated courses.
    
    Students can optionally repeat DD, DC and CC grade courses to increase their academic average. The last taken grades of these courses are included in academic average.
